Discretionary Trust - Income distributed to the beneficiaries.  Tax deducted from the income of the trust.  The distributed income is taxable in the hands of the beneficiaries.  TDS in the name of the trust.  No taxable income shown in the name of trust.  Hence no credit to trust.  Since the TDS is in name of Trust no credit to the beneficiaries of the trust of the TDS.  In such circumstances how to get refund of the taxes paid by way of TDS.

The rules (rule 37BA) have been amended to provide that in all such cases, the person who will be receiving the income should file a declaration with the payer of the income, stating that such income is taxable as the income of the specified persons who are supposed to be taxed on such income. There is no specific form prescribed for such declaration. Though the rule does not require it, the PAN and address of such other persons should be given with their respective shares of income. The payer of the income is then required to give details of such other persons in his TDS quarterly return, and such TDS will then be reflected in their respective form 26AS.
